The past comes alive

Dutch players Frank van Wezel and Hans van de Konijnenberg both collect books, magazines and Daily Bulletins about bridge. They especially enjoy reading Daily Bulletins from the pre-Internet era because these bulletins are a treasure trove of wonderful photographs, marvelous sketches, splendid deals and tremendous stories and anecdotes. Frank and Hans decided that this material should be at the disposal of all bridge players. At the same time, they want to save the history of bridge from oblivion. Therefore they launched a free website: www.bridgedailybulletins.nl.

On this site you can find thousands of scanned bulletins, both from the digital era and before. They posted WBF, EBL and ACBL championship bulletins, as well as many from miscellaneous tournaments around the world. If you have bulletins that they are missing, please contact them. Contact details can be found on the website.

14th Red Bull WORLD BRIDGE SERIES

Who do you call? — It’s Anna By David Stern

Another in the series profiling people I have seen at bridge tournaments for many years but don’t really know. Meet Anna Gudge. I have been attending world championships since the late 1980s and regard myself as very blessed at the number of good friends I have made in the bridge world. One such person is Anna Gudge. My first contact with Anna included such matters as copies of systems for teams I was captaining, arrival details, departure details, photos of players and much more. It was then that I came to understand that Anna is an exceptionally well organised person and an integral part of the machine that is the World Bridge Federation. Anna married at 21, not uncommon at that time, and has two daughters: Vicki, a ballet teacher, and Catherine, a housing administrator. She is also blessed with two grandchildren: Jasmine, who is reading maths at CamAnna bridge, and Sam, just three years old. Anna learned “kitchen bridge” when she was 35 (hmm, recently) following her divorce from her first husband and started attending the local bridge club where she met her second husband. Anna has played three times in the last 20 years, and it sounded during our discussions as if she doesn’t really miss it. But the kitchen part is still a major part of her life as she loves cooking, finding it a great way to relax at the end of the day. She especially enjoys Indian and Far Eastern food, though Persian cuisine is finding its way into her repertoire. Her early work career included administration for a catering company but in the mid-1980s she started working as an administrator with what was then the British Bridge League. She organised and attended the BBL congresses, was secretary to all the BBL committees and also organised their Simultaneous Pairs. The big changing point in Anna’s work life came in 1987 when, at her own expense, she decided to attend the Bermuda Bowl in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, where she met the Executive of the World Bridge Federation and was subsequently asked to attend the Junior European 4

Championships and then the World Championships, fulfilling different roles. Since joining the WBF, Anna has only missed two WBF Championships, Perth and Salsomaggiore – she claims to be the only person who has worked in the organisation and has never been to Salsomaggiore, the site for so many different championship events! It was not until after her second husband died in 1993 and her subsequent life partnership with Mark Newton, whom she had known for a number of years prior, that she became involved with ECats. Electronic Cataloguing, since shortened to ECats, is a company specialising in Internet Hosting, database and web integration and database programming. The ECats mascot was originally a Burmese cat called Emale, but when he went to the happyrat-catching ground Anna and Mark got another Burmese called Nimbus (their “cloud” kitten) and all of their computers are Gudge named after cats or characters in Winnie the Pooh Bridge is only part of a larger business specialising in these disciplines. It is this database programming expertise that allows ECats to run many simultaneous pairs around the world. These tournaments have a set of prepared hands with a booklet discussing the hands available after the session. ECats runs the four WBF Simultaneous pairs a year to raise funds for Youth Bridge as well as the World Wide Contest in June and various events for other organisations. In addition, ECats runs a big charity event in January under the aegis of the WBF to raise funds for specific causes. It started when the tsunami hit Indonesia and has been run every year since, targeting specific causes which have included a school in Pakistan, aid for Haiti after the earthquake and aid for the Philippines. Despite never having played bridge, Mark has written the scoring software which allows any number of players to compete in clubs across the world to be scored as one field. They also run various other Charity events and to date have raised well over $US100,000 for worthwhile causes.

10th - 25th October 2014 Anna’s roles within the WBF are extensive. They include but are not limited to:

14th Red Bull WORLD BRIDGE SERIES

Anna works hard behind the scenes for bridge players around the world, but life is not all work for her. Anna and Mark have a motor home called Badger which they use for long weekends and the occasional holiday around the UK

and Europe. Don’t worry, Badger is equipped with Satellite Internet to allow a fully functional office on the road. And when they don’t like the view out of the window, they just drive to a new site. Although they have just sold their house and are moving to a small cottage on the Orkney Islands in Scotland, for many years Anna and Mark have lived in a house – as we do – but one which was a former Railway Station which they converted into a home. They have great plans for the new cottage, which they plan to extend to include a new office area. People keep asking how they will work from a small island but the broadband connection is good and the airport is just 15 minutes away, so as Anna says – no problem! And Anna is also delighted that she is to have the opportunity to design a fabulous new kitchen. The easiest way to contact Anna if you need to is by email – [email protected] will find her wherever she happens to be on the planet.

14th Red Bull WORLD BRIDGE SERIES

Netherlands-Pertamina EP (Indonesia) McConnell QF I By Barry Rigal

The Dutch team featured a mix of youth and experience. Although Michielsen/Wortel were playing for BAKER, the Dutch had included an even younger pair on their squad, in the shape of Laura Dekkers/Judith Nab. They would be out for the first set as Anneke Simons/Jet Pasman and Carla Arnolds/Wietske van Zwol took on the Indonesian front four of Lusje Bojoh/Julita Tueje and Suci Dewi/Kristina Murniati. After PERTAMINA had broken on top with 3 IMPs in undertricks, the second board of the match saw Simons put Pasman’s declaring skills to the test. Board 2. Dealer East. N/S Vul.

Pass 1[ 2} 3} Pass 3[ Pass 4[ All Pass It seems somewhat surprising that E/W had to play game here after East had opened the bidding – there ought to be a way to put the brakes on – indeed that is what East’s 3[ bid normally represents. But Simons took her partner through the red light and it was up to Pasman to come home without incurring an accident. She was favored with a top heart lead – for which one could hardly blame South. Declarer won in hand, led a spade to the king, then a

second spade and found the good news. When the jack of hearts came back she won in dummy, came to hand with the ten of hearts and pitched her club on the fourth heart after crossing to dummy with the {A, and lost only one more trick to the {Q. I’m not sure if West asked her partner why she didn’t drop the {Q – but such comments normally get rewarded with a quick slap around the chops… CHINA ORANGE misguessed both pointed queens against MOSS, while BAKER managed to play a making partscore in both rooms somehow to gain 6 IMPs. The next board saw a tricky valuation problem; after North opens a natural 1} (let’s say 2+ clubs for the sake of argument, but it is not really germane to the problem) how should E/W bid here?

At the table when Pasman overcalled 1[, as we all would do, Simons’ methods allowed her to show four trumps and opening values with a jump to 3[. When Pasman signed off in 3[ Simons had nothing to say. Observe the perfect fit and complete absence of wasted spots – every honour down to the ten is more than pulling its weight! Even though the defenders took a club ruff, they could not stop declarer making ten tricks when spades were 2-2. CHINA RED were the only pair to bid game here but in compensation the 2} opening found in the other room handed back 300 points to COFCO, so they gained only 4 IMPs here. Netherlands went into the lead 11-6 when they stopped low on an ill-fitting combined 24-count, and though Simons couldn’t quite bring home her two-level partscore in a 5-1 fit, she still gained against 3NT down two from the other room. It was 12-6 when the boards started to heat up, Board 9. Dealer North. None Vul.

Pasman had a lot of information from the opponents’ entry into the auction but it did not point clearly one way or the other. Eventually she won the top diamond lead and drew trumps, then led a heart to the king and the ]J from dummy, a move she would have cause to regret. When the hearts did not break, she followed the percentages and misguessed the spade queen. Of course had she led a low heart from dummy instead of the jack, the hand would have been over. PERTAMINA led 22-12 now. BAKER missed slam altogether, and CHINA ORANGE negotiated hearts successfully against MOSS to bring home the grand slam. On the next deal only three of the N/S pairs were able to bid to their best slam, 6{. The rest of the field played 3NT. Board 10. Dealer North. None Vul.

CHINA ORANGE and CHINA RED managed to play 6{ by North. On a diamond lead the CHINA ORANGE declarer played a heart towards her queen and was home as the cards lay. (Note: if West ducks her king the only and non-obvious line is to draw trumps, eschewing the spade ruff in North and play three rounds of hearts, falling back on the club finesse if hearts do not break). The China Red declarer received the devilish lead of a low spade and elected to ruff a spade in hand. That was a swift down one. Against declarer for PUSHI West for BAKER led the spade nine. Yes a club lead would have worked better (declarer needs to take the ruffing finesse in clubs at once to come home since in theory the defenders could duck the first heart lead towards the queen – easier said than done!). But even so, I think South did very well not to play on spades but to go after hearts. West took her king, and declarer needed no further heroics.

Pass Pass 1}(2+)Pass 1{(]) 1[ 1NT Pass 2{ Pass 3} Pass 3NT All Pass Six of the eight tables played 3NT here, five by North, and all six made it, though accurate defence should prevail. Simons’ overcall got Pasman off to a spade lead (low from three) and the spade king went to the ace. Back came a revealing spade ten, and declarer won the jack to play a diamond up. When Pasman ducked, the hand was over. Declarer could win and go after clubs, with her ninth winner already stolen.To defeat the contract Pasman has to win the diamond ace and shift to the heart ten – an almost impossible task? Notice that it is not good enough for West to duck the first spade and have East continue spades when in with the }Q at trick three. West gets caught in a stripsqueeze, after having to discard all her diamonds to lose the link to her partner. Both N/S pairs then did well on the next board too, reaching a thin 3NT (with 11 facing 12 the hand was passed out at one table in Baker-PUSHI, the latter team’s

Pertamina EP 7

Sanya, China

14th Red Bull WORLD BRIDGE SERIES discretion clearly suggesting their name was somewhat misleading!) and guessing which opponent had the missing queen-third of clubs to bring it home. Only the Baker declarer failed to find the queen, but both tables in CHINA RED-COFCO missed 3NT. With the match score at 22-15 for Pertamina, the sort of result came up that has fans of KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) chortling with glee. Board 1. Dealer North. None Vul.

2{* Pass 2NT Pass 3} Pass 5} All Pass Should 5} be Exclusion Blackwood or not? And should the blame be shared on the grounds that if one player makes the call and their partner is capable of passing it, then they shouldn’t have put them under such pressure? One could argue that all North had to do was raise to 6} and her partner would be able to decide which slam they wanted to play in. Regardless, 5} was seven down while in the other room a Multi-auction got Arnolds-van Zwol to 6]x by South and after the [A lead declarer could claim. Note that on a club lead (found by Glasson for the Moss team, you can only make legitimately by ruffing high. If you ruff low you can’t draw trumps, and the 4-0 break means you run into a trump promotion on a second club. If -700 was painful consider that PUSHI competed to 5[x by West; try and beat it! The winning line after a diamond lead is to ruff four hearts in dummy, ruffing a second diamond then alternating ruffing hearts and leading clubs toward the West hand, to prevent South ruffing a winner. She does best to discard on the clubs, but when the fourth heart is ruffed, she can either overruff and concede control, or discard again and let declarer single in all 9 trumps and two clubs. Since 6] made in the other room this board constituted a first in my 35 years of watching bridge at the top, in that there were two swings of 20 IMPs on the same deal out of the four comparisons here. At the end of the set NETHERLANDS led PERTAMINA EP by 32-22. With carry-forward from the individual match in the round robin the total was adjusted to 40-22. 8

Disa-ppearing defensive tricks

By Al Levy

The final KO of the 18th World Computer-Bridge Championship takes place today. With a strong finish, Shark Bridge overtook Wbridge5 to meet Micro Bridge in the final KO. So it is a final without the favorite, WBridge5, for only the second time in the past eight years. One deal that helped Shark Bridge advance was against WBRidge5 in their round-robin match, and showed the need to advance the auction as quickly as possible. Board 11. Dealer South None Vul.

Five Easy Pieces By Mark Horton

Five Easy Pieces is a 1970 American drama film starring Jack Nicholson. It tells the story of a surly oil rig worker, Bobby Dupea, whose seemingly rootless, blue-collar existence belies his privileged youth as a piano prodigy. The five classical piano pieces played in the film and referenced in the title are: Frédéric Chopin: Fantasy in F minor, Op. 49 Johann Sebastian Bach: Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue, BWV 903 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 9 in E-flat major, K. 271 Chopin: Prelude in E minor, Op. 28, No. 4 Mozart: Fantasy in D minor, K. 397

I cannot tell you if these are difficult compositions, but there were some tough deals in the second session of the Rosenblum quarter-final between Monaco and Lebron - by pure chance I have selected five of them - judge for yourselves if they were five easy pieces: Board 19. Dealer South. EW Vul.

Using Slavinsky leads you give count with the opening lead when you have one or more honours. With K6532 you lead the 2, with K653 the 6 and with 9832 the 2. (the ten is not regarded as an honour). To defeat 3NT East must switch to a diamond at trick two. If West is allowed to win the trick he must then continue with the queen of spades - that’s a very difficult piece of play to find. Board 21.

West overtook it with the ace and tried the ace of diamonds. Declarer ruffed and ducked a club to West’s ace. He ruffed the diamond return and now does best to exit with the king of hearts, which might allow him to escape for three down. However, declarer exited with the king of spades and East took the ace and returned a diamond. Declarer ruffed and played the jack of spades. West won and played another diamond and declarer was without resource. He tried pitching hearts on the diamonds, but then West cashed the ace of hearts and played a heart, ensuring a trick for East’s nine of spades, five down, -1400. Closed Room

Here North’s more conservative action left E/W with much more room and they quickly reached a slam that appeared to be doomed. However, when North elected to lead the four of hearts the situation changed dramatically, as at a single stroke the contract became unbeatable. Declarer won with dummy’s queen, drew trumps, played a heart to the ace, eliminated the clubs and exited with a heart. North won with the king and had to lead into the split spade tenace. It would not have helped North to unblock the king of hearts as although it would then be possible for South to win with the jack he would be the one to be endplayed. You can imagine how it went at the scoring up - ‘Board 21, +920’ - ‘Well done, lose 10 IMPs. By the way, would a double by South in this type of situation ask for a spade lead (imagine South held a likely trick in addition to the spade void)? Turbo may be new to you. This convention was originally designed to be employed with Neapolitan cue bids, which show a first or second round control after a fit has been established. It became part of the Blue Club system developed by Benito Garozzo. The fundamental concept of Turbo is that the partner bids 4NT to show an even number of keycards. This only happens after a cuebid has been made showing a first or second round control. A bid higher than 4NT promises an odd number of keycards and also first-round control in the suit bid.

Un Ristretto Lavazza, grazie Lavazza v Era Round of 16 — segment 3 By Micke Melander

Before the last segment between LAVAZZA and ERA in the Round of 16 the match was very close. ERA had taken a small lead of 3 IMPs, 56-53. After the first four boards in the last segment it looked like every IMP would be more important than ever for both of the two teams trying to qualify for the quarterfinals, since only 4 IMPs had been shared.

Bridge magic By David Stern

If Jack Zhao says he has an interesting deal to report, you should listen. Board 12 of the second round of the Open Pairs qualifying was one such hand.

Seeing four likely losers, Zhao had to conjure up something special to make the contract – and he did, with a little help from the opponents, something we all need in pairs tournaments. After ruffing the diamond, Zhao played the [A, [K and a third spade. It was a critical moment for the defence. East must ruff his partner’s spade winner with a “useless” trump and play either his second trump or the }10 to break up the ending that Zhao achieved when East did not find the key play. West continued with a diamond, ruffed by Zhao to follow with a club to the ace and a spade through East. It makes no difference what East does, whether he ruffs or discards with declarer on play in this ending:

At this point, Zhao had lost only one trick. When he exited with a club, the defence was helpless. If West holds the lead, he will be endplayed in trumps or forced to lead a diamond, allowing Zhao to discard dummy’s club loser and ruff in hand. If East overtakes with the king, Zhao then has only one club loser. West will get a trump trick, but Zhao will have his contract. Well done by Zhao, who already has one gold medal for winning the Red Bull Mixed Pairs. He finished his Open Pairs session with 55.6%.
